My current biggest money drain is for equipment and supplies for a small farm/homestead we bought last year. Never knew compact tractors with all the bells and whistles cost so much. Plus I like to buy EDC tools off of Kickstarter.

As a gastroenterologist for over 30 years the healthiest patients I see are either on carnivore or paleo diet. The sickest patients are the vegans. This article does not agree with my experience.

As a doctor I called out Elizabeth Home's as a fraud when she first hit the scene. I have no doubt her partner is also a fraud.

I remember this happening to me after playing King's Quest IV. It was due to the way you interacted with the graphics. I would want to interact with real world objects as I did with the game objects.

DEI policies in surgical residencies are leading to below average surgical skills. Surgical residencies used to be a pyramid based system with only the best being chosen based on merit. That changed over 20 years ago and we are now paying

I don't mind the AI stuff but find the censoring of conservative voices extremely disappointing.

I grew up in the 1980's with a Pinball Wizard pinball machine in our finished basement. My parents still have it. It still works to this day when we can get replacement parts.

Used to love Unreal and UT. Too bad all the bots ruined the game. Low gravity sniper servers were my favorite mod. Used to be on the NTHZ team.

Coming up on 1 year off alcohol next week. My college freshman son was having issues with his alcohol intake so I quit for him, but have noticed I feel much better mainly due to better sleep. I quit using the "alcohol is poison"

Legal immigrants are screened for TB if they are from high risk countries. The illegal immigrants don't get screened and are the sole cause of the explosion of TB cases in the US. Stop putting your head in the sand.

I haven't had the first issue with the Apple Card. I didn't get it until 2021 though so maybe they had the kinks worked out.

I have really enjoyed by Kindle Scribe prior version since it came out. I have had 7 different Kindles since they first came out. The Scribe is my favorite. Not sure if the new Scribe is worth buying.

So things haven't changed in the 30 years since I left academic medicine. Par for the course given how grants and funding are carried out. This will continue to happen as the system design guarantees this outcome.

Every time I report scam advertisements Facebook responds that they do not violate their TOS. I rarely spend any time on Facebook as a result. Big waste of time. I have moved all my friends and family interactions to text messages and Wh

As a gastroenterologist I have used Medtronic GI Genius AI to do colonoscopies for the past 8 months. It is mildly helpful but has way too many false positive alarms for "polyps" that are not polyps. It needs better training in

We just had French drains put in around a farmhouse we bought as it had major drainage issues. They seemed to be working well last weekend during a few thunderstorms. Given the current tropical storm pounding NC I am glad we did it before

Wow that is an impressive list of books. She has similar taste in SF as I do (lots of Robert Heinlein). I will have to read some of the books she reviewed and gave high marks to that I have missed over the years.

Quit drinking last December. I didn't quit due to addiction but due another family member in the house having issues with alcohol. I rarely miss it. I definitely get a lot more done on the weekends. Also it made it easy to drop 15

What is supposed to happen in a democracy is that each sovereign citizen will always vote in the public interest for the safety and welfare of all. But what does happen is that he votes his own self-interest as he sees it... which for the m
